Inventor: MEYER KEVIN L
IPC: A47B17/00
Filed: 1996-06-05
Abstract: A table having a horizontally enlarged worksurface, and a pair of leg assemblies fixed to the worksurface directly at the opposite end edges thereof and projecting downwardly for engagement with a floor. Each leg assembly includes an upright leg member disposed directly at the rear corner of the worksurface, and at its lower end this leg is fixed to a horizontally elongate foot which projects forwardly for engagement with the floor. The leg adjacent its upper end has a support bracket which projects forwardly directly under and fixedly secured to the worksurface in close proximity to the end edge thereof. The outer side surfaces of the leg and base are preferably vertically flat and substantially vertically coplanar, and are also substantially vertically coplanar with the end edge of the table. A cable-accommodating trough is fixed to and extends horizontally between the legs in downwardly spaced relation from the rear edge of the worksurface. This trough defines two separate channels for permitting separation of telecommunication and power cables. The trough projects a small distance beyond the rear edge of the worksurface and legs to facilitate feeding of cables from the worksurface downwardly past the rear edge thereof to the trough, and the feeding of cables directly between aligned troughs of linking tables by passing the cables directly behind the legs.

Abstract: A magneto-resistance effect type thin-film magnetic head for detecting reproduced signals by the magneto-resistance effect, which is suitable for detecting reproduced signals by magneto-resistance effects, is disclosed. The thin-film magnetic head includes a two-layered magneto-resistance effect element (3) made up of a first magneto-resistance effect film (33) and a second magneto-resistance effect film (37) of substantially the same width as the first magneto-resistance effect film, layered with a non-magnetic insulating film (34) in-between. Since the magneto-static coupling is produced between the first and second MR films, the magnetic state between the first and second MR films is stabilized. The film thickness contributing to the playback output can be reduced as in the case of a single-layer magnetic head constituted by a single-layer MR film for realizing a high playback output.

Abstract: Disclosed is an abnormality detecting apparatus for detecting an abnormality associated with the intake pressure of an engine (1). This apparatus has a intake pressure sensor (43), provided in an air-intake passage (4) in the engine (1), for detecting the intake pressure, and detects an abnormality associated with the intake pressure, which includes an abnormality in this sensor (43), an abnormality in the pipe of the air-intake passage (4), and an abnormality in a turbocharger (21) system based on the detection value of the sensor (43). An electronic control unit (ECU: 60) compares the detection value of the intake pressure sensor (43) with a predetermined reference value to detect various kinds of abnormalities associated with the intake pressure which include an abnormality in the intake pressure sensor (43). More specifically, the ECU (60) determines if the engine (1) is in a stable idling state based on the detection values of a throttle sensor (42) and a crank angle sensor (46). When having determined that the engine (1) is in a stable idling state, the ECU (60) learns the detection value of the intake pressure sensor (43) and stores it as a learned value. The ECU (60) compares the learned value with the detection value of the intake pressure sensor (43). When the difference between both values is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the ECU (60) determines that an abnormality associated with the intake pressure which includes an abnormality in the intake pressure sensor (43) has occurred, and signal an abnormality accordingly.

Abstract: A communication control apparatus (10) for controlling communication between a group of electronic control units (11, 12, 13) that are provided in a vehicle and a diagnostic apparatus (20), which diagnoses each electronic control unit (11, 12, 13). Each of the control units (11, 12, 13) stores diagnostic data used for diagnosis and is connected to the other control units (11, 12, 13) so as to construct a communication network. The diagnostic apparatus (20) is connected to the network to communicate with and read out the diagnostic data stored in each of said control units (11, 12, 13). The diagnostic apparatus (20) commences communication with the control units (11, 12, 13) by transmitting an initialization signal to the network. A first control unit (11) determines whether the initialization signal has been transmitted from the diagnostic apparatus (20) when communication takes place between the first control unit (11) and the other control units (12, 13). The first control unit (11) further transmits an interrupting signal to the network to stop the transmission of the initialization signal when it is determined that the initialization signal has been transmitted.

Abstract: An intake manifold positioned between two banks of a V-shaped engine has a structure in which a body section and a connecting section coupled to each other with a plate-like mounting stay interposed therebetween. A support leg integrally formed on the mounting stay is fixed by a bolt to injector bases coupled to cylinder heads of the engine E. Thus, it is possible to firmly support the intake manifold by means of the mounting stay and moreover, to eliminate the need for a special fixing device for fixing the mounting stay to the intake manifold, thereby leading to a reduced number of parts.

Abstract: A manual transmission for a four wheel drive vehicle
having a driving force distributing apparatus is composed of a
transmission gearing mechanism and a differential mechanism. The
transmission gearing mechanism comprises an input shaft for
transmitting driving force of an engine, an output shaft arranged
on the same axis as the input shaft for outputting driving force
of the transmission to the differential mechanism, a counter shaft
arranged in parallel with the output shaft for transmitting
driving force from the input shaft to the output shaft through
transmission gears. The differential mechanism mounted at the
rear end of the transmission mechanism on the same axis as the
output shaft comprises a differential for distributing driving
force of the transmission gearing mechanism into a front drive
shaft and a rear drive shaft. Further, the differential mechanism
includes a differential limiting mechanism for controlling a
torque distribution ratio according to running conditions. The
feature of this manual transmission is that the differential
mechanism can be mounted in a relatively high position, therefore
a pumping-up of lubrication oil in the differential mechanism
can be avoided and as a result a stirring resistance of oil can
be reduced, thereby fuel economy and oil deterioration are
improved.
